Say hello to the Clever Coffee Dripper
Say hello to our newest addition. I first came across these little drippers at the 2008 Seattle Coffee Fest, but it wasn’t until I saw them in action at Café Myriad in Montreal that I had the chance to appreciate how good they actually are. It’s such a simple idea that you can’t help but kick yourself for not coming up with it. They tick a lot of the boxes that need to be ticked when you’re thinking individual brewers. They’re simple, cheap, virtually unbreakable, and commercially viable, because you don’t need to sit and nurse them through a brew. Lastly, the concept actually works.

The Über Boiler has finally arrived — and so the picture is now complete. Brewed coffee is acknowledged as one of the best ways to represent the subtleties and flavour characteristics of all the new world coffees (read ‘specialty coffee’).

How to Spruce up your Super Auto
Here at 5 Senses, we get a lot of questions from folks wanting to know how to get a decent cup of coffee from their super automatic coffee machines. And when duty calls, we’ve got your back. Just let it be known that we are in no way condoning this machine – it will never give you the best result in the cup.

Getting the Most from Filter Coffee
Following up on Ash’s ‘Super Automatic’ machine story, it’s clear that you can spend a lot of time and money buying a Super Auto, then playing with the settings to get a coffee that isn’t terrible, but it is much easier (and cheaper!) to get quality coffee using a filter.
